2a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
3any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
3power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching
4outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
4 | b) Avoid body contact with earthed or | |
4 | grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, | |
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased | ||
4 | ||
risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or | ||
4 | ||
grounded. | ||

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet | ||
5 | ||
conditions. Water entering a power tool will in- | ||
5 | crease the risk of electric shock. | |
5 | d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord | |
5 | for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power | |
6 | tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp | |
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled | ||
6 | ||
cords increase the risk of electric shock. | ||

e) When operating a power tool outdoors, | ||
6 | ||
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor | ||
6 | use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces | |
6 | the risk of electric shock. | |
6 | f) Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur- | |
7 | faces only, when performing an operation | |
7 | where the cutting accessory may contact |
7 | hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a | |
